Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a fully automatic rice cooker that automatically performs rice cooking processes from storing rice to measuring rice and water, washing rice, preparing rice, cooking rice, and keeping rice warm.More specifically, the present invention relates to a rice cooker. This is related to the installation configuration.

Conventionally, in fully automatic rice cookers, the heating element and temperature detection parts for rice cooking are fixed to the fully automatic rice cooker body, and after rice cooking is completed,
It was configured so that only the rice cooker was removed from the fully automatic rice cooker itself. Therefore, when the pot is taken out, the pot is hot and there is a risk of burns, making it difficult to operate. In addition, after taking out the pot, there was a drawback that the rice could not be kept warm unless it was transferred to another warmer1.The present invention eliminates these drawbacks and provides a fully automatic rice cooker with excellent operability. It is something to do.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is the main body of the fully automatic rice cooker, 2 is the top plate, 3 is the steam outlet provided on the top plate 2 to discharge steam during cooking, and 4 is the transparent container that allows you to check the amount of rice remaining in the rice bin by looking through it. 6 is a switch part, 6 is a control circuit part, 7 is a rice bin, 8 is a rice measuring device provided at the bottom of the rice bin 7, 9 is a rice washing device provided below the rice measuring device 8, Reference numeral 10 is a drainage receptacle installed below the rice washing device 9, and reference numeral 11 is connected to a water faucet. jg water pipe, 12 is a water tank for storing water injected from the pressure water pipe 11, and 13 is a pump connected to the lower part of the water tank, which pressurizes the water from the water tank and sends it into the rice washing device 9. Reference numeral 14 denotes a drain pipe that guides the dirty water after washing the rice from the drain receiver 10 to the outside of the fully automatic rice cooker main body 1. Reference numeral 15 denotes a steam vent pipe that guides steam generated during rice cooking to the outside of the fully automatic rice cooker main body 1, and the upper end of the pipe 15 is connected to the steam discharge port 3. 16 is a rice cooker lid opening/closing device that opens and closes the lid of the rice cooker. 17 is a rice cooker, 18 is a power connector provided on the rice cooker, and 19 is a drawer that stores the rice cooker 17. The drawer 19 is provided with four parts that match the external shape. 20 is a drawer panel provided on the front side of the drawer 19, and 21 is a handle for pulling out the drawer 19, which is accessible to the drawer panel 20. 22 is a guide attached to the drawer 19. 23 is a roller provided at the rear end of the guide 22, 24 is a guide fixed to the fully automatic rice cooker body 1, and 26 is a roller attached to the fully automatic rice cooker body 1. 26 is a hook for preventing the drawer 19 from opening when the drawer 19 is closed, and 27 is a stopper attached to the fully automatic rice cooker main body 1 for hooking the hook 26. 28 is a power connector provided on the main body 1.

Next, the operation of the above configuration will be explained. First, open the drawer 19 and set the rice cooker 17 on the drawer 19. Then, drawer 19 is closed. When the drawer 19 is opened and closed, the guide guide 22 fixed to the drawer 19 comes into contact with the roller 25, and the roller 26 rotates while the guide guide 22
2 moves. At the same time, the rollers 23 provided behind the guide 22 come into contact with the guide 24 fixed to the fully automatic rice cooker main body 1, and the rollers 23 move smoothly to the guide 24 while rotating, allowing the rice cooker to be pulled out smoothly. 19 can be opened and closed. When the drawer 19 is closed, the hook 26
is caught on the stopper 27 and the drawer 19 is locked. At this time, the power connector 18 attached to the rice cooker 17 and the power connector provided on the main body 1 are automatically connected, and electricity is led into the rice cooker 17. Switch section 6
At the time set in , the rice cooker lid opening/closing device 16 operates, the lid of the rice cooker 17 is opened, and the rice in the rice jug Y is
After being weighed in the rice measuring device 8, the rice is transferred to the rice washing device 9, where it is washed with water pressurized by the pump 13, and after the rice washing is completed, the rice washing device 9 is moved onto the rice cooker 17. , put rice and water into the pot inside the rice cooker 17. When the rice preparation is completed, the rice washing device 9 moves to its original position, and the rice cooker lid opening/closing device 16 operates again to close the lid of the rice cooker 17.

After that, rice is cooked, and after the rice is cooked, it automatically switches to the keep-warm state. After the rice is cooked, hold the handle 21 and remove it from the hook 2.
6 and open drawer 19. As soon as the drawer 19 is opened, the power connectors 18 and 28 are separated. The rice cooker 17 is taken out from the drawn out drawer 19, and the rice cooker 17 is carried to a desired location.

As described above, according to the fully automatic rice cooker of the present invention, after rice cooking is completed, the hot pot and the heating element are housed inside the rice cooker, so there is no risk of burns and the rice cooker can be easily stored inside the rice cooker. It can be removed from.

Moreover, since the rice cooker can be easily attached and detached, the parts inside the rice cooker can be easily repaired, and a fully automatic rice cooker with high safety, excellent operability, and serviceability can be provided. In addition, if you prepare an auxiliary power cord with a connector that matches the power connector installed on the rice cooker, you can keep the rice cooker warm even when it is removed from the fully automatic rice cooker.
